I need a advice "If the dependant visa is in grace period will there be any difficulties for travelling".

There is issue to travel within valid grace period but dependent once out cannot come back to Bahrain on the same status

There is no issue*

Going out, no issue.  Coming back, problem.

What if it was under ministry and they issued cancellation and exit .( The passport was with them for a long period to issue visa but they told couldn't issue it because of the recent change in a law)

Hello,
I have the same situation. My daughter born in Bahrain 4 months ago. We traveled to our home country in July as her grace period visa. Now she cannot come back as bahrain has stopped processing visas of red list countries and don't know when they will remove our country from red list.
Is there any way she gets the visa to come back. My whole family has valid residency except the newborn 😔

The reason doesn't matter.  The fact is that the visa won't be valid.

If you read the forum posts, I have repeatedly asked people NOT to travel in their grace period and get the visas renewed to avoid exactly the situation that you are in.   Right now you can do nothing except wait or find some high level connections.
